"THIS REEF IS DEDICATED TO THE MEN AND WOMEN OF OUR ARMED SERVICES WHO'S DEDICATION AND SACRIFICE HAVE MADE AMERICA WHAT IT IS TODAY, THE HOME OF THE BRAVE AND THE LAND OF THE FREE."
 - the plaque was laid on the reef bottom on November 13, 2000 during a dedication ceremony -

The only artificial reef in North America dedicated to the veterans of our wars, Veteran's reef recently had the addition of a Lockheed Neptune P2V-3, which was sunk upright on a barge in 43 feet on water. Within a few years-perhaps less-Veteran's Reef will be home to many species of fish and other sea critters. take a tour of Veteran's Reef, or check out some of the sea critters which hang out on and around Veteran's Reef. Read the story of the woman who donated the original flag to Veteran's Reef. look at an artist's rendition of Veteran's Reef when it is completed. if you'd like, tell us your story about being a veteran and we will post it on veteransreef.org.
